Sometimes the life we choose
Just like a bottomless pit
Sometimes we play with dynamite
The fuse already lit
Sometimes we soar like an eagle
Try to fly like a bird
Sometimes we scream for help
Still can't be heard

What's seen is seen, what's heard is heard
Done is done in this big ol' world
One thing I know is life has shown
Sleeping dogs best left alone (sleeping dogs best left alone)

Don't try and go backwards
The hands been already dealt
Don't try and laugh at the same old jokes
Pain that's already felt (already been felt)

Don't try and drive with one eye closed
One tire in the ditch
Walk around with your head in the sand
Saying life ain't nothing but a bitch

What's seen is seen, and what's heard is heard
Done is done in this great big world
One thing I know is life has shown (one thing I know)
Sleeping dogs best left alone (sleeping dogs best left alone)

What's seen is seen, what's heard is heard (heard is heard)
Done in this big ol' world
One thing I know is life has shown
Sleeping dogs best left alone (sleeping dogs best left alone)

Sleeping dogs best left alone
Fixing the needs of the clean and the unclean
Clean and the unclean
I'm planting the seeds of the seen and the unseen
Fixing the needs of the clean and the unclean
Heard is heard
I'm planting the seeds of the seen and the unseen
Fixing the needs of the clean and the unclean
Then what's heard is heard
